Swiftask orchestrates your data while Placid generates your visuals instantly. Create impactful graphical reports without any design skills.
Result:
Save hours on dashboard production and share clear visual insights at every key milestone.
Manual visual report creation slows down your analysis
Compiling data into design tools to create reports is incredibly time-consuming. Between updating numbers, formatting charts, and exporting, your teams spend more time on aesthetics than on insights.
Main negative impacts:
The Swiftask + Placid integration automates your visual creation. Your AI agents extract data, transmit it to Placid, which instantly generates graphical reports that align with your brand guidelines.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
The traditional manual process
An analyst extracts data from a CRM, imports it into a spreadsheet, creates a chart, copies it into design software to integrate it into a PDF report. This takes 45 minutes per report.
Automation with Swiftask and Placid
An event triggers a workflow in Swiftask. The AI agent aggregates data, calls the Placid API, and a personalized visual report is instantly generated and sent via email or Slack channel.
Deploying your automated reporting system
STEP 1 : Design your templates in Placid
Create your visual report templates once in Placid. Use dynamic layers for variable data points.
STEP 2 : Connect Placid to Swiftask
Link your Placid account to Swiftask using your API key. Configure the agent to trigger rendering requests.
STEP 3 : Define the data flow
Set up the AI agent to extract the correct metrics from your data sources and map them to your Placid template variables.
STEP 4 : Automate distribution
Define the frequency or the trigger (new lead, month-end) to automatically generate and send the visuals.
Power of dynamic visual reporting
The AI agent analyzes source data to select the appropriate Placid template, adjusts colors based on performance, and integrates dynamic text.
Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.
Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-placid@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.
Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
Strategic advantages of visual automation
